Julian Perez edit of STL's from a distance. not a major departure but i like it!

straw poll: new juan atkins vocals on moodymann’s “no ufos”. classic or tragic?

http://youtu.be/OIeOtH5UnpA

i thought i was going to hate the luciano mix because lol tribal bongo minimal but it's actually pretty rad! has kind of a classic boompty beat and just the right amount of electro lock and pop and is hypnotically minimal (in terms of structure) as opposed to annoyingly minimal (no awful mid 2000s computer sound palette)

also there's cool submerged chimes

it's a shame i had to buy the OG again!

I think this is my favourite record of last year, and i forgot to nominate it in the poll

its Sir Benni Steil

Fell off the back of a lorry mate, its Welkins on YYY

luciano takes on "no ufos"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ck8VqFsZP0I

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1woQLa0qcVE

RIP alex

Oh no, I didn't know about any of that, and hadn't seen the article when it first appeared either. Tokyo is a great track, play a lot still.

RIP Alex

where do we post funk and disco edit bobbins on ILM?

BEARDO DISCO (finally fixed for vahid) - not idjuts / lindstrom - harvey, rub'n'tug, map of africa ??

or the balearic thread

or this thread, who cares

sure why not :)

i'm digging the orange tree edits series, esp. the last couple releases

https://www.discogs.com/Various-Afro-Edits-Vol-3/release/10398505
https://www.discogs.com/Unknown-Artist-Eastern-Edits-Vol-1/release/11463219

Pls put disco here too!

Cool, DJI, will do.

re: the Moodymann remix of No Ufos mentioned upthread, I think the new vocals are a bummer. They sounded fine in the sample but I was let down when I got the thing in the mail. This is okay with me b/c I didn't have the original, though, and that Luciano version is surprisingly tasty.

i'm more into the vocals now than i was before!

yes they are groaningly corny ... but so are most detroit techno vocals? and so are the o.g. version vocals. so they have been growing on me.

It fell down a hole, lets try that again for all spiritual mashheads in suits

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6CEOGYdE6o

oops wrong thread took a wrong turn at ufa

good bobbins tho wrong thread or no

this one's from 2017 but i just got it in the mail:
https://www.discogs.com/Simon-Moncler-Makin-Moves/release/10438366

Yay, NO UFOS! Remix is super.

Vocals are just of the era, love it!

I might play it out tomorrow and see how the crowd reacts.

sure, report back,

ahh sorry i didn't play it last night after all. as i was forgetting there was a love theme for the night so i didn't think it'd slot in with my set. :/ i got the best reactions to older bobbins though, so maybe it would've gone over well anyway. shoot.

Check bobbins of the past thread for some great vocals from Basile Boli and Chrissy Waddle!

thanks, will do! i've been sleeping on that thread for too long

stoked i just ordered these:
http://halcyontheshop.com/jacob-korn-my-business-lets-play-house/
http://halcyontheshop.com/roza-terenzi-mwah-ep-kalahari-oyster-cult/

oh and this one, fuuuuuuck http://halcyontheshop.com/further-reductions-disparate-elements-knekelhuis/

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6AsRktkj1k

I don't really know where this drifted in from, but I do know Basile Boli was unavailable for vocals this time around

Yeah, so the 15 years of the Bunker comp is pretty consistently great.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osqgCOUbicQ

Bunker comp feels very much like a 90's techno thing to me, like microhouse or minimal never happened. Even the cover as a Tresor-style homage...

Hi bobbinsers - been lurking on this thread for the last few months, having made my first proper effort to get into techno at the end of last year (more from a DnB/UKG/dubstep background dance music wise).

Was checking out the bunker comp on iTunes and pressed the purchase button by mistake! Not regretting it though; although I generally find melodic and minimal stuff to be more accessible at this point there are some great tunes here. I guess my ideal would be a midpoint between this very deep and detailed textural stuff and the broader melodic flourishes of Kompakt.

this mix is rly doing it for me

are you aware of this thing called berghain?

Sure, but are you talking about the club or Ostgut Ton? Berghain runs a range of programmed events, increasingly so I'd say.

But sure, there is a 90s "classicism" strain, obv. If that's what you're saying...

they have a lot of special events but the main room / panoramabar bookings are still pretty much of a certain vein

there's not an official resident list I know of, but I just remembered this page where someone crunched the data: http://cdm.link/2017/05/berghain-numbers-data-worlds-relentless-techno-club/

xp yeah i was just saying - in my admittedly snarky way - that the 90s techno revival has been in full swing for at least 5-6 years now

oddly enough it doesn't have seem to have changed the fortunes of tresor the label or club much ... though maybe the principals are just old enough now they don't care to put in the effort ...

and, if its ok if we have two releases in one day, there's a new one from Zûg, one of the Uruguayan lads, the other side is my fav but its not on the youtube as it was too genial and there was a complaint from a neighbour

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Q_6Cx_IwTM

enjoying that zug

Hold tight, Nokia 3310 boys

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvU2gb8nSH8

that is a great tune

another one from Zûg, a ambling meander. it is playing while i am studying in the library, it is complimenting the bookshelves

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xW_8LZ3Kck

another good one

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVVtyZ-jBhs

From the Kolorit (aka Kassem Mosse and Lowtec) album on Workshop

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3MyXfZ1KPk

Some lovely deep house sans kick drums

it's cool, recalls the work of elgato a bit

i mean the parris, not kolorit

Alva on Inner Balance, two Parisian lads that didn't make it at PSG, now introducing smooth passing and cultured celebrations in the lower leagues

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JgJIVasIho

I guess this is sold as retro funk but it sounds lounge housey to my ears
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cztfyj1dVgk

the spanish lads have been dominating at both and club level for a while, this one from Celta Vigo winger Javier Moreno

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uffrkNku7ZM

the release on Colt is better but its not on youtube, something to do with the loan arrangements, no vibing against parent club

ah this is the best track out of the Zug ones

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAsPJl4Ksl4

man these zug guys are good

or, this guy

Yeah, there's supposed to be a repress of those 12"s in April, gonna try to get on that

rattling stock car racer tune from somewhere in England

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEk4ats2m9o

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7O5a5rUR2uo

Laurel Halo was an astonishingly good DJ when I saw her a few years back, lots of Principe-style rhythmic workouts and bleepy early techno, I'm surprised she hasn't had her name attached to something like this before

love that

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pn-QCKZBY08

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GmnCSZKn6s

this Blue sublabel of Whities has been pretty solid in 2018

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUG3-xI244g

there are far far worse people to rip off than Shed

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZMEe645qKw

rave pastiche banger

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vC_fEKOn7t4

this kind of thoughtless brutal techno doesn't usually excite me because we've all heard a million other things like it but this feels particularly demented the deeper into its spiralling madness it descends

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiovkRBcUzk&t=

the intro to this literally is the Ableton metronome and I want to hate it because of that but the groove is so sweaty and playful

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EPPbRHUow0

the Jeff Lorber sample used by Lil Kim, sped up with added Loleatta, derivative fun

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bw8SUsUpeNo

growling garage that was definitely inspired by "LFO", that bass is >>>>

Nice picks!

Liking this one
https://www.redeyerecords.co.uk/vinyl/103814-drh057-jon-hester-states-of-matter-ep

what's the ableton intro one?

https://youtu.be/MiovkRBcUzk

I dont know how I managed to fudge the link earlier - it's Mount Liberation Unlimited "Body Language (Mouth Mix)"

Only clips of the tracks on the youtube but this double 12 compilation out of Madrid is very slept on! Interesting and varied selection with top vibes and sassy insights. This one is from Javier Moreno & Canetti

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjmfTpJYT-0

Luckison, which I think is a collaboration between Mayell from Ljubljana with some other people. its well vibey mates

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWBNnnjFb7Y

it doesn't say who this is really by, but I've a £1.50 bet its a pseudonym for Kyiv playmaker io

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZH3nyj-VK4

christmas on a plate innit

in more pastoral Australian waters, not entirely clear if this track from Tim Jackiw was recorded in 90s and only just seeing light of day today

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJ0UnI7U_6A

two brits go mad in berlin, its Asper Bothrops - bit of a grower this one, took hearing it out to click, but click it has!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tkv0CKHwomI

Rounding the year off with this shipyard excursion from Montreal via Den Haag, good night dockers

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoKzYvPq_94

what if galcher lustwerk were a young korean woman?

http://youtu.be/KJ8ysMzL2BE

i guess it would be like yaeji but not bad

http://www.discogs.com/sell/release/1823221?ev=rb

this is a good one in etienne de crecy revival style

oops wrong link

http://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=g1Kj2B4MKr0

oops one more try

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1Kj2B4MKr0

The other side of the Luckison record that smashed the EOY poll!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGywc1_2FYM

now I think maybe this side is better

reminds me a bit of a fluffier Metamatics Meander
